What We Do

Access Solutions for Any Project

Supported Scaffolds

Big City Access carries the safest, most durable and dependable frame and system scaffold products in the industry. Our experience allows us to expertly assist in configuring even the most unique and challenging projects.

Canopy Frames: Canopy frames are used on sidewalks, building entrances and exits for pedestrian overhead protection.

Accessories: From multiple size crossbraces, to a variety of side and end brackets sizes, outriggers, casters, access ladders, guard rails, guard rail gates and guard rail posts, we carry everything needed to get the job done.

Suspended Scaffolds

Big City Access exclusively carries the Altrex suspended platform systems, which are recognized throughout the world as the standard for the industry.

The components of the Altrex modular suspended platform system are compact and flexible, which is ideal for temporary applications. Projects where the Altrex can be used are: maintenance, repair and inspection jobs like building facades, curtain walls, stadiums, silos, oil tanks, bridges, etc.

Double-Wide Platform: A double wide suspended platform is 54” wide and allows access to building facades with overhangs, cornices, large soffit areas, etc.

Double-Deck Platform: By adding a double deck kit, the standard Altrex modular platform system can be configured into a multi-level platform; this allows workers simultaneous access on two levels.

A ladder type frame is connected at each end of the platform. By using the trapdoor in the upper deck, the workers can safely climb from one level to another.

Trash Chutes

Our trash chutes are made from heavy duty plastic or a scaffold with plywood chute. The ease-of-use and durability provide a quick, clean, and safe solution and have been perfected to provide you with the right tool for debris removal.

Big City Access offers a wide variety of hoists with lifting capacities up to 2000 pounds. Our hoists can be mounted on beams attached to scaffolding or to a counterweight system. Additionally, a trolley system allows loads to be delivered to their required location.
